Big CFD / Huge Simulations The CFD Mixtape

    • Physics

This week, guest Richard Kehn, Principal Engineer Mixing Technology at SPX Flow, joins John to talk about his experience as an engineer, large-scale CFD workflow and advice for engineers just starting out.

In this episode, John and Rich discuss:


Rich’s career trajectory
SPX Flow’s CFD workflow and orders of magnitude range of fluid flow volume
Advice for CFD and other engineers just graduating college

“Mixing is quantitative. There are things you can calculate… but there’s also a flow pattern occurring. You got to make sure whatever you’re modeling, you’re getting that right… Seeing lots of tanks mix both in plants, in a laboratory set up at multiple scales, it really grounds you to make sure that whatever you’re doing on paper makes sense.” – Rich Kehn
